Jiyen Lee’s Green unfolds as a meditation on time, perception, and the interplay between the static and the ephemeral. Constructed through photographic collage, the work disrupts linear temporality, fragmenting the urban landscape into an ever-looping continuum. The digital and physical interlace, echoing Henri Bergson’s concept of durée – the experience of time as fluid and indivisible. Here, memory and perception engage in a duet of perpetual reconstruction.

As viewers encounter Lee’s work, they are confronted with their own temporal awareness; each loop in the video is both a return and a departure. This cyclicality recalls the structural rhythm of modern existence, where repetition both defines and obscures the passage of time. The collaboration with sound designer Young Wan Yoon enhances this interplay, reinforcing the piece’s hypnotic quality. Green does not merely depict time – it enacts it, inviting the viewer to oscillate between the personal and the universal, the fleeting and the eternal.

Lee’s visual language also speaks to the fragmented nature of contemporary urban life, where moments of stillness are rare and movement is incessant. By layering and deconstructing images of cityscapes, she amplifies the sensation of dislocation, urging viewers to reconsider their relationship with time and space. The work becomes an open-ended narrative, where past, present, and future coalesce into a single, ungraspable entity – one that resists resolution yet compels reflection.
